The theme this year is "Power of the People: Working for the Community."
The public will gather at Bethel AME Church, located at 150 Fairfield Ave., for a rally and march to commemorate the fallen civil rights leader. After the march, the recognition continues at a luncheon program at the Yerwood Center at 90 Fairfield Ave.
